About This Activity

iRun4Good’s "I've Got Something Better" event will benefit youth substance abuse prevention and treatment. It's time to make a clear statement to our youth they have much to look forward to in their lives as they pursue goals and dreams free of future-destroying substances. Faith-groups, nonprofits, businesses, schools, individuals and local government are all invited to participate. All net proceeds will be donated to benefit youth drug abuse prevention and treatment.

Something for Everyone

Also, a community fair will take place before, during and after the race with information on community services and resources.

Why it’s important

80% of Gilbert youth who used marijuana and Rx drugs started before they could legally drive.

The #1 cause of accidental death in the United States is opioid overdose.

Help us put an end to it.

*This is a USATF Sanctioned event.
